A system for shape dependent model identification in a point cloud includes a scanner device that captures a 3D point cloud that contains a representation of an object. The system further includes a computer that receives a sensor data, a capture time of the sensor data being substantially the same time as that of the 3D point cloud, the sensor data indicative of a position of a movable part of the object at the time of capture. The computer further computes an adjusted shape of the object from a baseline shape of the object by using the sensor data. The system further includes an object recognition module that searches for and identifies the adjusted shape of the object in the 3D point cloud.
